Roaming FAQ's

Q: How do I activate International Roaming?

A: Prepaid customers will roam by default, while postpaid customers will need to contact their key account manager before travelling abroad

A: Zamtel operates the GSM international standard. You may use any overseas GSM network if that network has a roaming agreement with Zamtel. Currently we have roaming agreements with various mobile networks in many countries covering Africa; Europe; America; Asia and Middle East. This means that you can make and receive calls, send and receive SMS in these countries around the world.
